In today’s Twitter article, Hefferman still contends Payton and Jimmy Bean will be here.

Oh please don't get people started again! 🙂

Craving a McBride Special!

I have to defend Heff here. 

Until they are officially removed he has to report as if they will be here. 

He knows there  is little to no chance either ever plays basketball at SIU

Actually he doesn’t. A real journalist would find out the truth. If you were to say that about Tom Weber I’d agree but Heffer is not bound to pander to SIU. 

Heffer is just lazy.

I'll just assume they'll both be here until I see something that officially says they aren't, mostly because I really wanna see Jimmy in a Saluki jersey. That's not to refute any inside info, but especially regarding those rare cases like Jimmy's, it's very rare to hear anything about a kid in his situation until he's either a part of the team, or not.

Who knows what's really going through his head. If it's not driven by academics, I'll hope for the best here.

--Insert something witty here--

we have more scholarship offers out than we have "official" roster positions open for what it's worth

i don't there is anyone here that doesn't want to see him here next season and beyond

So Darius would stay, but Jimmy who paid his own way to be here last year wouldn’t end up staying? That’s unfortunate

Several things going on there. I think all of us want him here. Probably not going to happen

Found the following info on the twitter site of Greg Levinsky, a sports correspondent with the Boston Globe:  Former Alcorn St. 6'4" guard Troymain Crosby has heard from SIU and Mercer transfer 
Fardaws Aimaq, a 6'11" sophomore forward will be visiting SIU.  Doesn't give a date, though.

Outside of Benson, are there any other recruits on campus this weekend?

Hearing there will be several recruits in this weekend and more in the following 2 weeks. Haven’t heard any names so it is up to the Insiders to get the scoop.

May be something cooking on the Barret Benson front .  Both Mullins followed him this morning 

Hello, I have been a long-time viewer of the forum with not much to contribute usually, but I can confirm that Benson is on campus today. Saw him getting a tour around campus about an hour ago.

Thanks for sharing!
